    I presumed the distinction between mini vs large batteries was merely the amount of current they held and that physically they had the same dimensions, however looking at some AEG specifications I notice a few specify mini only, whats the significants of this, if any.

    mini batteries have smaller sized cells and smaller connectors

    large have bigger cells and large connections

    physically they are quite different

    Yep, And Minis normally only go up to about 1500mah or so where as larges get 4000mah sometimes. Never need that much though:p

    *** looks at ridiculously large 10.8v 3600mah battery

    indeed, 4000 is overkill :p

    Edit:
    Also, the further information I was going to post is the two links below from arnie's:
